Let's Make a Deal - Entrepreneurship Special

Last night, Jeffrey L. Boney (Founder/CEO) Texas Business Alliance and J. Goodwille Pierre (Chair of GPC 2010 Small Business Development/Contract Compliance Manager) were my guests. We talked about entrepreneurship and what it takes to start and effectively run a business.

We received a lot of questions about this topic. Alot of good informative information was shared with my listeners, as they were eager to hear what these men had to say.

I plan to host part 2 in the next few weeks, as we were not able to address half of the questions that were presented. Thank you for listening and supporting the show.

Tune in next week, as this is Women's History month and I plan to feature several successful women. We will discuss their journey and what they encountered along the way. Take care!

Let's Get Healty 2010 - Radio Show Review

The show tonight was very enlightening, as we had a good discussion about HIV/AIDs and how people are afraid to get tested and the lack of education that exists in the community. Ms. Nike Lukan, Vice President of Prevention Services AIDS Foundation of Houston did a great job sharing her experience in this area and how this disease is adversely impacting our community. She talked about how every 35 minutes a woman tests positive for HIV in the United States. She also noted that women of color are disproportionately affected by HIV/AIDS and AIDS is now the leading cause of death for Black women ages 25 to 34. We talked about the choices that women make and how they (women) continue to have sex with men, hoping that doing this will keep them around. We also discussed that people do not want to talk about HIV/AIDS, as many people are in fear and have chosen not to get tested because they do not want to know their status. This is a very hot topic and we could have talked about it for the full hour. Several questions went unanswered, as we did not get a chance to address them. I plan to have Ms. Nike on my show again so we can continue this dialogue.

Dr. Derek Wilson, President of the Houston Association of Black Psychologists and a Professor at Prairie View A&M University talked about the psychological aspect of health and how it, if not treated can have a negative impact on your health. We also talked about depression and how it can be considered a normal way of living if not treated. We also discussed some proactive things that can be done to assist you when you have some psychological challenges.

Tune in next week, as we will discuss what is takes to elevate your business to the next level.Keep your Eyes on the Prize and have a productive week.

Medical Assessments

• HIV/Aids is the leading cause of death among women between the ages of 15 and 44; unsafe sex is the biggest risk factor. The death rates of women in their reproductive years occurred in low-income (22.3 percent) and middle-income countries (15.4 percent).
• Breast cancer is colorblind; however mortality rates for minority women are higher than for Caucasian women.
• Psychological and emotional factors often interfere with healthy lifestyles. This tends to be more prevalent among the nation's ethnic/racial minorities.
